I'm seeing people saying they dislike the FL but liked the lead in It's Okay to Not Be Okay but I felt the opposite because even though Dahae is a literal criminal, she's not emotionally abusive and I guess I have a worse reaction to the latter. What do you guys think?

Same, I don't hate the storyline but it's also the least interesting part of the drama imo. It would be great to see a plot twist that upends expectations the way we've seen with the other characters and the way we saw with Ina blackmailing Dahae.

I watch every episode once on my TV so I get the full impact of the visuals and then I watch on my laptop so I can listen to the score and get screenshots and video captures. I agree that the electronic sounds in the background music are really interesting and add a lot to the tone of the story

Up to this point I don't find the romance very interesting though who knows what will happen given Ina's powers.

Re: the age difference, the show very deliberately cast actors who are three years older than the actress who plays Ina in order to emphasize how vulnerable she looks. Of course we eventually find out Ina is strong enough to blackmail Dahae and not someone to mess with so I actually enjoy that contrast, it's supposed to make you uncomfortable on purpose

It's not for everybody. If you're not enjoying it by episode 3 I'd say drop it. The tone and execution don't substantially change.

Because of the confirmation that she was at the fire that killed his hyung. He thinks he's the one who saves her and also thinks that this is the key for him to move on from PTSD and depression. He's clinging to her like a life preserver in the ocean.

Yes and also he still isn't able to return to the hospital room where Ina was born. He has limited control over his power but it's still evolving

I love it too. I don't understand why people are struggling so hard with this.

I have a theory that she saw beyond the wedding and knows where Gwiju is going to end up in the end and she's nudging things along from the sidelines (presumably because he does eventually get a happy ending but only after a lot more pain)

Probably a more accurate measure of viewership is where it ranks on Netflix. Last week it was #6 on the Netflix non-English Top 10

DH pulled the ring out of the suitcase earlier in the episode so she knew it was in there

I have vague ideas of what might happen based on themes that are emerging in the story but how that will play out is a complete mystery to me (I love it)

I think it's the point. It's why I'm about 60% convinced that he didn't save Dahae. I think he's going to realize that the less he needs to learn is he has to accept life as it comes and gain peace that way. I agree that right now it's obsessive. But it's telling that his obsession is the closest thing to love and kindness that Dahae has experienced. They both still have a lot of healing to do.

I caught that line and it adds a lot of weight to what Dahae did because she knows what she's risking. I'm scared for our girl.

It's the storeroom scene that changed the game for both of them. Once Gwiju heard the whole story of the fire from Dahae's perspective, he got fired up by the idea that he was finally going to be able to save someone through his time travel and that by saving her he would fix his depression, PTSD and relationship with Ina. It's magical thinking but he's desperate and emotionally stunted after years of living in the dark literally and figuratively.

Dahae's experience sincerely telling the whole story to Gwiju when she had never done so with a man before and having her story met with compassion and understanding made her realize that she did trust him and care about him and Ina and that she didn't want to continue the con any longer, she couldn't bring herself to scam this specific man and family.

So the storeroom scene was a tipping point in the relationship for both of them and it makes sense because the fire was a tipping point in both their lives, it scarred and damaged and changed them forever. So connecting through the fire is a transformative moment.

As for the mother, she may see something beyond simply the wedding that's making her think she needs to let all this play out instead of stopping it.

Wow, I'm struggling with how to react to that episode.

First, I think Gwijoo needs to lose his fixation with saving people & accept the unpredictable nature of life. That's when he'll have peace. Also I am starting to become more and more convinced he is not the one who saved Dahae or at least it won't play out the way he thinks it will. It's a red herring. They are somehow fated lovers but not in the neat and easy way he thinks they are, he saves her and poof all of his problems are solved. It's deeper and more complicated than that.

I love that Dahae confessed and now everyone knows what's going on but how will it play out in future episodes? Because she truly has been a healing force in the family. How will her relationship change with her scammer family? (scammer mommy is scary as fuck and we already know she's killed people in the past and she won't let this go). What will happen when Dong Hee shows her mother the ring that Dahae stole. Wait, did Dahae even steal it or was it her family heirloom and she's somehow related to the Boks? Remember when Ina asked her crush if he had relatives named Bok? What a weird question. Why did she ask that?

Dong Hee is losing weight and it's good for her and she's doing it in a healthy way, not by starving herself or being obsessed with her looks but because she's found a new purpose in protecting her family. I hope she and Grace continue to draw closer, I hope their frenemies relationship doesn't end here, it's one of my favorite parts of the drama.

Ina's frenemy returning the gifts was a good thing because at least she's not a thief, just jealous and immature.

Shit, what's going to happen next????

Consider how the adults in the family treat Ina. Father ignores her because he's an alcoholic and the grandmother ignores and insults her because she thinks she doesn't have powers. I don't think the female lead is uniquely terrible compared with everybody else in the family

I'm blocking but new accounts keep popping up, it's annoying af

I so appreciate the people who dislike this drama because of the plotting or pace or lack of chemistry between the leads because there are so many straight up misogynists in this comment section that it's starting to make me want to poke my eyes out.

It means she wears it a lot and the lighting in her room is often yellow and she often handles yellow objects. So when you see something yellow in the drama it is usually connected to the female lead.
